Propose a change

Local Government Act 2000

Write the words of this act the way you think they should read. Solon shows your change as a redline against the published text and pins it to that exact text, so it can never be applied to wording you did not see.

Change 1

Your change, as a redline

9HB Time of elections etc

The Secretary of State may by regulations make provision— (a) as to the dates on which and years in which elections for the return of elected mayors may or must take place, (b) as to the intervals between elections for the return of elected mayors, (c) as to the term of office of elected mayors, and (d) as to the filling of vacancies in the office of elected mayor.

One line that says what changes, such as "Halve the dog tax".

Who it helps, what it costs, what it fixes. It is what persuades people to support it.

A proposal here is not law. Support on Solon is evidence that people want the change; the official route says what it takes to make it law.

Think it through

Ask what your change would do, who would gain and who would bear a cost, and where something like it is already law. The assistant reads your draft as it stands, cites the law and the studies it finds, and takes no side. What you file stays yours.
